My friends Stan and Cathy just got back from a night at the boutique Napa River Inn in one of the world’s premier wine destinations. Located in the downtown shopping area, this 66-room 1884 historic landmark hotel is next to the river (hence, the name), award-winning restaurants, galleries, shops and — wait for it — lots of wine-tasting rooms. The inn offers the latest amenities in Victoriana or nautical themed rooms — and through November, it’s superb harvest season wine package is only $245/night midweek (a $50 savings over weekends).

With fireplaces and exposed brick walls, the package includes:
• Accommodations in an executive room;
• Breakfast from the much-praised Sweetie Pies Bakery next door;
• A wine tasting; and
• A wine picnic at the Bouchaine Vineyards with a basketful of goodies and a bottle of fine wine.

Book now. This limited time offer is such a hit, some dates are already sold out. The inn also offers in-room spa treatments from a neighboring business. Reserve your room now www.napariverinn.com or call 1-877-251-8500 and mention Shermans Travel.
